If you REALLY want want to get rid of the spam bots from your phpBB, go
to the phpBB forum pages and search GMT-12. Since I tried what is
suggested there some months ago, I haven't had a single spam bot
register on the phpBBs that I maintain.
If you want to waste your time blocking IP addresses, that's up to you.
